lIOTES ON A DAY'S TOUR ROUND UMTATA.

-----------F.A.W.Lucas.

JIr • i wane arranged a day'. tour to show me the

different egree. of development of Natives in this neighbourhood.

Birst he took me to the houa. of Msimba, who is a clerk in the

employ o~ the Bunga, getti~ £220 p.a. He is matriculated and

his wi~e was educated at Blytheswood up to the second year's

traini

They hay

as a teacher, after which sbe did four years nursing.

five chIldren, the .ldest being 8. Mzimba bought

two plots from the Umtata hmicipa11 ty of 6 acres each, at

£25. per acre. He has built on it a house costing about £350.

and h s to pay municipal rates of 4d. in the £. at an assessed

value of land £200. house £295; water rate is £4.105. a year;

he pays 4d. per month per head for grazing. He has five co."

four i n milk, one bull, one heiter, 4 oxen of his own and 5 ox.n

belo i ng to triends which \'ftlN lent to him before he had an;y

of his own. He said he could plough w±t his land with his own

four if necessary. He gets 7 gals. of milk a day and senda

cream to the Creamery at Komgha. He keeps very good poultry,

white leghorns, and hasbe~een 170 and 180 laying hens, from

which he ' is now getting about nine dozen eggs a day . They are

we ll pe ed and fed, and treated in an up-to-date way. I saw

a basket of .eggs - they rere 2 oz. eggs. He sends them to the

market in Umtata and is at present getting 1/- a dozen, but a

little while ago could only get 6d. to 8d. He wanted to join

t e East London Egg Circle, but apparently Natives will not be

admitted to that eircle . He has about a hundred fruit tree.,

most o~ them 3till young. He has a very good vegetable garden,

and has a wagon ~t his own. He is gro\rlng strawberries, from

whioh I had a small diah of large fine fruit . He employs 00 me­

times one, sometime' two Native boys, paying them from 105. to

205. per month with tood and housing. Apparently the difficulty
